Lovely grounds during daytime. Night lights were fun. Sculpture on the grounds in the summer is wonderful.

Always great at evening event, and this year's Nightwoods was the best yet. This site is the best way to see and sense the history, spaces, architecture, fun and fresh air of the Berkshires.

There is entry fee into the featured house and it includes a guided tour. Bring your school id for discount. Adults$20. BUT, if you don't want to spend, here is the great news, the entry is free to the common space in the entire estate. You can still see the house up close from outside and enjoy the garden and many sculptures throughout the estate. Cafe is accessible to all and offers amazing backyard well manicured garden views and the views of the forest we lands. The gardens are mesmerizing and offers insight into the lifestyle of people living in this estate. It was drizzling during our visit and the greeter at the booth kindly offered us the umbrellas. She was very polite and explained us things we can do for free. The hike down to the mountain was about 7 minutes and I believe taking your car down there is allowed. I saw few cars driving down there. You can ask how. Overall, I am coming here again for more history.

Wow, we had a dog so only went on the grounds but that was so lovely. And free. Great trails thru big old tended forests. Lovely sculpture tour. Then amazing gardens with lovely lime tree walk. Enjoyed a nice snack on the back patio. I’d come often to hang if I was in the area.
